Saying that someone doesn’t deserve to be a senator isn’t canceling them, that is the public opinion candidates are subject to in a democracy.

"What were 'norms' anyway? Was it really the responsibility of these four children to solve every mystery for the adults?"

the way Trump and his administration keep going on livestreams and tv to laugh about this, I can’t really compare it to anything political that comes to mind, only thing that comes to mind rn is a serial killer who writes letter taunting family of their victim.

i really resent the continued assertion that there’s so much anger on both sides, as if the causes of the anger are equally legitimate. we’re angry because masked maniacs are violently snatching our family and neighbors off the street, and they’re angry because we’re calling them out for it.

Considering crowd funding to turn this exact message (the quotes beside the picture) into a billboard, with a question: “Are you tired of being lied to yet?”

I FUCKING TOLD YOU ALL HOW STUPID THIS WOULD GET

NEW: CU Boulder sophomore Nathaniel Ellis has been identified as a member of the white supremacist groups Patriot Front and Active Club. Nathan is on the Executive Board for CU Boulder's Turning Point USA Chapter. Read the full report: frontrangeantifa.noblogs.org/nathan-ellis/

I’m no expert, but I was raised Christian, went to a Christian college, and worked as a camp counselor at a bible camp, so I’m pretty sure Jesus did, in fact, give out lots of fish.

The current iteration of the Republican Party consists of two competing factions: Fuck Them Kids (figuratively) and Fuck Them Kids (literally). In this essay I will

No image has ever spoken so succinctly about the current situation in the US.

Turns out that monopolies on data services is bad

QLL is amazing, and has been instrumental in my ability to read (really, listen to) way more queer books on my long commute. Sign up (in addition to your local library!!). Libby will auto-default to the shortest wait if a book is available at more than one library! Technology can be cool!

Here's a gift link to the New York Times' coverage of the initial Tea Party rallies in April 2009 which inspired the media to treat it like a massive movement. Check out how tiny the crowds were: Philly: 200 DC: "several hundred" Boston: 500 Austin: 1,000 Houston: 2,000

when i say that i yelped in shock at this kid’s sign

Little Rock, AR. #NoKings

#NoKings Broomfield, CO showed up!! Love you all!!

Congrats to every Republican who warned about the massively dangerous pro-terrorist “I Hate America” rallies who now gets to see their words featured in a Daily Show montage with images of sweet little grandmothers waving little American flags

So the government is shut down but they made all these bluesky accounts today? wild. anyway, blocked em all. join me!

thinking about the guy running the us govt bluesky accounts. thats his friday, trying to troll people on a relatively niche social media site because they won twitter and it made them miserable. catastrophic loser energy

Block and move on, block and move on... (But also??)

Okay maybe just one

Find a No Kings protest Saturday and go! Don't worry that you've never been to a protest before. Don't worry about being dressed wrong or looking out of place. Don't worry that you don't agree about everything -- or even about much -- with lots of people at the protest. /1

Good afternoon. I’m at the Colorado Springs Housing Authority for a protest by Colorado Springs Tenants’ Union.

a real water is wet scenario here

I am adamantly against the death penalty but I have reached a point where I think we might need some trials that end in hanging to get out of this

One of my personal heroes is Bryan Stevenson, an absolutely amazing lawyer and person whom I've always wanted to be like. Stevenson wrote in his brilliant book Just Mercy that "Each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done."

Send every ICE employee to the fucking Hague.

Hot off the presses! If you need a bigger size to print your stickers let me know!

GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment. An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action. A disinformation machine as our journalism fails. A bias machine as fascism takes root. A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

So awesome that work that would get me a failing grade in my community college paralegal classes is being produced by the government. Love that for us.

If we do manage to kick that monster out of office and wrest control away from the GOP, my greatest fear is that the general public won't understand that it will take DECADES to get things back to normal. And when it doesn't happen in 4 years they'll immediately vote someone horrible in again.

Let's fuckin goooooo

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

For the EPSTEINTH time When are they going to release the files

Unpopular opinion maybe, but I don't think it's a slip of the tongue. I think Trump is on the decline and Miller is testing the waters for a transition of power.

Thanks to community support from more than 100 donors and pre-paying advertisers, and the receipt of a generous grant, the Pikes Peak Bulletin is back in action, now as a digital-first news outlet serving the Pikes Peak region. pikespeakbulletin.org/featurednews...

Lord give us the Democrats that Republicans warn us about.

I weep for the world where we would have gotten this game. Also as said by many others, this doesn't offend many Americans - Just very loud, powerful, and violent ones. I don't blame Ubisoft for pulling it. Those assholes would have made devs lives' hell.

The thing about this that's worth recalling is that it *wouldn't* even offend most Americans: just the group of reactionary grifters who make money by being professionally offended online.

Qatar gave Trump the luxury 747 that he wanted and now we are LETTING THEM BUILD A MILITARY BASE ON US SOIL

Independent Journalism is worth every penny. In April I finally cancelled my WaPo sub & instead started a paid sub to @marisakabas.bsky.social. Today, ACLU of CO and other local lawyers filed a lawsuit on behalf of their clients against Noem, DHS, & ICE. Marisa's work was cited in the footnotes.

As I was fucking saying.
